WHAT WE DO

We allow our clients to hire quickly and effectively in order to scale their business.

People and talent are the most important asset to any company.

Relationships are critical. We build ours to last.

We represent not only ourselves but our clients, and we do it with pride and integrity.

RESEARCH & TARGET

We do the opposite of throwing you resumes from a database and hoping for the best. While we know time is of the essence, we invest time to align with you on what and who we’re recruiting. Understanding the business needs is critical. Only by understanding the broader business goals can we correctly target our recruiting efforts and engage with the right talent.

ENGAGE & RECRUIT

Having researched your business and industry, knowing the competitive landscape, and having identified the right potential talent for the opportunity, we craft our pitch and go to market. Leveraging our brand, network, and relationships, we engage the market, telling your story (incredibly well) as evangelists for your company.

INTEGRATE & OWN

We integrate with your team (can even operate out of your offices). We immerse ourselves in your company culture to understand the subtle nuances of position requirements that can’t be translated into paper qualifications. We own the recruitment process from beginning to end, ensuring a positive candidate experience and maintaining your employment brand. To candidates and the public, we can appear as a part of your team—including email address, LinkedIn, etc.

DATA & INSIGHTS

We’ve been in LA tech long before “Silicon Beach” was coined. With local expertise and a network of quality relationships that span wide and deep, we know Southern California. We have unsurpassed localized data, offering you insights into companies, teams, investors, back-channel references, and market compensation trends. We provide the data, insight, and talent analysis you need to hire the talent critical to your success.

HOW WE DO IT

Rooted in two simple principles.

One: Be Recruitment Partners to our clients. This means a true collaborative partnership, working together, not just being another service provider.

Two: Become evangelists for your company. This means we tell your story in incredibly compelling fashion. To do that, we really need to know your business.

Together, this makes us your world-class talent acquisition partner.

The goal isn’t just filling seats.

The goal isn’t just filling seats. It’s about acquiring passionate, intelligent, and energetic talent to join your team. The right talent is the heartbeat of every successful company. The data on who does what and where is out there. We take the data and we recruit against it, building relationships along the way. For us, it’s not transactional.

STEP 1: KICK-OFF MEETING [ideally in-person]

We need to understand your hiring needs. We partner with hiring managers and kick off searches with a detailed discovery meeting of hiring needs, position requirements and persona and team preferences. It goes beyond paper qualifications.

STEP 2: RESEARCH AND MAP THE TALENT POOL

We are really, really good at sourcing. We identify potential talent for the opportunity, regardless of their employment status. We look at talent “in the market” not just those that are “on the market.”

STEP 3: ENGAGE THE MARKET

We contact, engage and screen the talent pool from our research. We also manage, screen and engage with appropriate inbound applicants as well. All while managing the client’s employment brand.

STEP 4: PRESENT RELEVANT CANDIDATES

We have conversations and/or meetings to qualify every candidate we present to the hiring manager. For every candidate presented, we will have the agreed upon data points gathered for the hiring manager. We then get feedback from the hiring manager and iterate as needed.

STEP 5: RECRUITMENT LOGISTICS

Recruitment gets messy and takes up lots of time. We can integrate and operate as an extension of the internal team when possible. We can provide all the logistical support around scheduling and conducting interviews to ensure nothing falls through the cracks.

STEP 6: HIRE THE TALENT

We help negotiate and extend offers, gather and conduct detailed references, coordinate background checks and seal the deal to get your position filled and the talent hired. All while building and maintaining relationships beyond the recruit.
